A Methodology to Transform Small and Medium Companies to Lean Manufacturing Enterprises in Ecuador

Gonzalez Jaramillo, Victor Hugo 08 April 2014 (has links)

The project aims to develop a methodology to transform small and medium companies to lean manufacturing Enterprises. It seeks to define and evaluate administrative, production and service processes in a textile company which manufactures garment apparel, define problems in these processes, raise improvement plans and recommendations for themselves and determine a simulation model to search for the feasibility of the proposed improvement model designed.
